CYBERPOWER GREENPOW ER UPS TECHNOLOGY GreenPower UPS

• The CyberPower GreenPower UPS cuts UPS energy costs by up to 75% compared to the conventional UPS circuits. Conventional UPS systems pass power through a transformer to provide normal output voltage to protected devices. By contrast, the GreenPower UPS circuitry bypasses the transformer when utility power is normal, significantly increasing the power efficiency of the UPS. As a result, a GreenPower UPS produces less heat and uses less energy reducing energy costs.
• When utility power is abnormal, the GreenPower UPS operates like a normal UPS. Since utility power operates normally 88% of the time, the GreenPower UPS™ operates primarily in its cost-cutting bypass mode.

LCD STATUS DEFINITION

The LCD display indicates a variety of UPS operational conditions. All descriptions apply when the UPS is plugged into the AC outlet and turned on or when the UPS is on battery.

• INPUT voltage meter: This meter measures the AC voltage from the wall outlet. The INPUT voltage readout is used to identify the input voltage information. This can be used as a diagnostic tool to identify poor-quality input power. Units are listed in V (Volts). When the UPS connect to any equipment, the AVR can provide a stable 110/120V power output. In the event of a complete loss of power, severe brownout, or over voltage, the UPS relies on its internal battery to back up to supply a consistent 110/120V output.
• OUTPUT voltage meter: The Output Voltage screen measures, in real time, the AC voltage that the UPS is providing to your connected equipment via the UPS outlets. Units are listed in V (Volts).
• ESTIMATE RUN TIME: The Estimated Runtime Screen displays how many minutes of runtime can be expected of the UPS if it were to experience a power outage. When runtime becomes shorted, the battery capacity will decrease; (battery capacity bar indicator will be falling.) Note: The number displayed may be less than actual runtimes for low loads.
• NORMAL icon: This icon illuminates when the UPS is working under normal conditions.
• BATTERY icon: When there is a severe brownout or blackout, this icon will appear followed by an alarm, (two short beeps), indicating that the UPS is now working using its internal batteries. Once the batteries are run out of power, (over a period of time), a constant alarm will sound. If this happens and main power has not been restored, it is recommended that you save your files and turn off your equipment manually as soon as possible.
• Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) icon: This icon will appear when the unit is automatically regulating low or high AC input line voltage conditions, without resulting to the use of battery power.
• SILENT MODE icon: This icon appearing indicates that the buzzer will not be beeping while in battery operating mode. During Silent mode, the unit’s alarm does not sound until the Battery Capacity falls to < 20%.
• OVER LOAD icon: This icon will appear followed by an alarm, indicating that an overload condition has been reached. To recover from the overload condition, start unplugging your equipment from the UPS outlets until the icon disappears and the alarm stops.
• FAULT icon: When activated indicates a system fault error. Please refer to the troubleshooting table for possible causes and solutions. BATT. CAPACITY meter: BATT. CAPACITY is shown as a bar chart; each segment indicates approximately a 20% of battery capacity.
• LOAD CAPACITY: Load CAPACITY is shown as a bar chart; each segment indicates approximately a 20% of load capacity.
